BTS, 빌보드 싱글차트 1•2위 동시석권... '병역 연기' 가능할 것<br /><br />After weeks of climbing the Hot 100, the tune known now as "Savage Love" has reached the penthouse for the first time. Among the artists credited - South Korean septet, BTS.<br />Since earning their first Hot 100 ruler just over a month ago with "Dynamite," the band now controls over the highest two spaces at once as the cut sits at number two.<br />And, South Korea may allow all seven members to delay their mandatory military service.<br />Lee Kyung-eun reports.<br />K-pop sensation BTS is set to make history once more,...by occupying the number one and two spots in Billboard's main singles chart.<br />The band's mega hit 'Dynamite' is currently at number two in the Billboard Hot 100.<br />And the remixed version of 'Savage Love' by U.S. pop star Jason Derulo, and New Zealand producer 'Jawsh 685'...is set to top the chart.<br />Unlike the all-English single 'Dynamite', which saw BTS become the first South Korean artists to top the Billboard Hot 100 in late August, the 'Savage Love' remix contains Korean lyrics.<br />The track ranked 8th in last week's charts, but reached the summit after BTS released a remix on October 2nd, with the boy band taking over lead vocals.<br />Billboard says the song's overall activity stemmed from the BTS versions and the majority of the track's overall sales were owed to the BTS remix.<br />According to Billboard, BTS is the first group to sit at number one and two simultaneously since the Black Eyed Peas in 2009.<br />With the band playing a key role in leading the global boom of Korean entertainment, the seven members will likely be able to delay their mandatory military service.<br />Legislation had previously proposed a bill that allows entertainers who make "great contributions" to its popular culture to delay military service.<br />Under the current law, waivers are only given to elite athletes and classical musicians.<br />But during Tuesday's government audit, the Military Manpower Administration said that it is pushing ahead with the bill.<br />If passed, the band could perform with its current line-up for at least a few more years,... including Jin the group's oldest member who is due to be called up by the end of next year.<br />Lee Kyung-eun, Arirang News.<br />
